Ingredients
  • 4 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 medium onion
  • 2 clove garlic
  • 1 tbsp Italian seasoning
  • 3 hot turkey sausages
  • 4 slices turkey bacon
  • 1 bunch Kale remove stems, wash and chop
  • 1/2 cup vegetable broth or water
  • 2 tsp balsamic vinegar
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • asiago cheese shaved
Instructions
  1. Place 2 tbsp of olive oil in a large skillet.

    Add the garlic, spices and let them warm up in the oil.  Do not burn.

    Remove the garlic.

    Add the onion and cook until translucent.  

    Separate the sausage from the casing. I like to pull it out in little rounds.

    Add the sausage to the pan.

    Slice the bacon into small pieces and add to the pan.

    Cook until the bacon and sausage are browned.

    Remove everything from the pan.  

    Add 2 tbsp of olive oil to the pan.  

    Place the Kale into the pan.  Add salt, pepper and the broth.

    Stir and wilt to half.

    Splash with the balsamic vinegar. 

    Add the bacon, sausage and onions to the kale.

    Turn to blend all the flavours together. 

    Pour the whole thing onto a platter.

    I poured mine over polenta.  

Recipe Notes

You can eat this as is or pour it over rice or polenta.  An alternative would be served with fresh bread.
